don't let daley drive the firetruck.

from carpooling coworker's odo - 42024.

tonight we went to see the local high school football team play a district playoff game about an hour away. so it was like local, only not. [insert myriad details of excitements both good & bad, many mistakes and missed chances, and a few brilliant plays.] our team won 33-30!!

scramble and scramble2 seem to be not only merely dead, but really most sincerely dead. they will not activate live online at all, not even a little bit. so, i have taken up word pops which is a combination of spelling and tetris. it is delightful.

today i called the help desk to get a cabinet moved. the property services guy called me back. convo went something like this:
prop svcs: «what do you need moved?»
ace: «a cabinet.»
prop svcs: «a lateral file?»
ace: «no, a cabinet.»
prop svcs: «a bookshelf?»
ace: «no, a cabinet. like with doors.»
prop svcs: «a cabinet?»
ace: «exactly. a cabinet.»
prop svcs: «okay, well, we will have to come take a look at it to see what it is.»

today at the store i found & purchased a fruitcake. a fruitcake for me to eat. mmmm.... fruitcake.
